SUNDAY

STEELERS (-6) over Ravens: The NFL War of Attrition has affected Baltimore’s prospects markedly. With 19 players already on IR, CB Samari Rolle’s groin strain is a major hindrance, especially for one manning that specific position. You’d expect the wonders of modern sports medicine to permit the likes of linebacker Terrell Suggs and fullback LeRon McClain to participate, but at anywhere close to 100 percent? For a rookie, QB Joe Flacco has displayed plenty of poise, but for a ticket to Tampa, he’ll have to avoid turning the ball over while more than holding his own against Dick LeBeau’s ballhawking defense. It’s a lot to ask for 60 minutes, competing against the likes of Ben Roethlisberger, Willie Parker and Hines Ward – especially for a team here in large part due to Kerry Collins’ generosity. If Big Ben stays upright, and can work that play-action magic, Steelers (-6) can sweep this divisional rival and proceed to Florida’s West Coast, for one unit.

LAST WEEK: 0-2 (minus two units): Dared to pass, Jake Delhomme did – too often, to the Cards! (Panthers, minus one unit). Heinz Field scoreboard operator got quite a workout (Chargers/STEELERS Under 38, minus one unit).
